Just a tip from a Gulf Coast boy who has had to fight w/ love bugs most of his driving life. If you don't know what love bugs are, feel fortunate. They are the tiny black spawns from hell that fly around w/ their butts stuck together in massive hords, and seemingly love to suicide themselves in large masses on the front of your vehicle. I've literally had to pull over while driving and pour coca-cola (yes it works) on the windshield and wipe to be able to see. (I ran through a heavy patch).
